"On August 10, our home incurred major damage from the Derecho, a straight-lined windstorm with over 100 mph winds associated with severe thunderstorms. Afterwards we found ourselves left with two very large trees (the largest of them being the neighbor’s maple tree) on our house and debris scattered throughout the area. We were in a state of shock and disbelief. My first call for help was to John French of Elite Seamsless Gutters because I knew that he had recently expanded his business to include tree trimming services. John had his entire crew arrive the next morning at 8:30 for clean-up that would require them to work two consecutive 14 hours days to deal with all of the debris and damages from the Derecho. Unless you actual saw the size of these trees, you would have a hard time getting a grasp on how much work need to be done. Thankfully, John had all of the necessary equipment and manpower to get the job done and cleaned it up quickly. Three weeks later, our insurance adjuster finally arrived to assess the damages to the house. As you might expect, the estimate was somewhat low, and John worked tirelessly with my adjuster to point out several differences between what needed to be repaired and what was included in his insurance payout. As a homeowner, we would have never known to question what John found, and his efforts resulted in a significant increase in the insurance payout. The amount of repair and worked needed to be done was extensive and included replacing our roof, reattaching our chimney, repairing a section of our drive (damaged from an uprooted tree), replacing our siding and gutters, re-bracing the garage, and repairing a section of our privacy fence. We would need new window trim, soffit and facia. Since so much work needed to be completed, we accepted the reality that we would incur some additional costs to complete the project. I cannot begin to put into words how pleased we are with all of the work completed by Elite Seamless Gutters. Through nobody’s fault, John and his crew dealt with material and supply chain issues and other challenges associated with working during a historic pandemic. While these challenges extended the project, our job required an unbelievable amount of planning, preparation, customization, precision measuring, cutting and they really delivered! John’s entire crew at Elite Seamless Gutters was professional, courteous, and does top-notch work, but a few of them deserve a special shout out from us: Harley (tree removal), Kenny, (foreman) Billy (roof), Viz (siding), and Erick (electrical). You guys are the best! Thank you, Elite Seamless Gutters and John and Sara French, for restoring and significantly improving the appearance of our home. We hope that we never need any additional work done to our home, but you should know that we would not hesitate to hire you again and encourage anyone in need of home repair to do the same."

Upon installation of a lawn irrigation system, you will receive 2 seasonal service contract, which includes the start up and shut down of your system, a fertile system which fertilizes your lawn(fee), repels bugs and rust, also a hose enclose which hides your garden hose for those small jobs (fee).
"Installed our system 6 years ago, the system has worked well since install. I would just say get everything in writing and make sure to ask what the life time warranty means. Also check on when they can do you turn on and turn off they are very limited! Where we live they only do one specific day per week so if you cannot be home on that day you will be in trouble twice a year to be home for them."

We have 3 employees we don't all usually work, we do mostly tree topping but we remove tree and stumps also, we can do jobs as big as clearing out tree lines to just removing a tree dead or to close to the house. We use climbers mostly so we don't destroy yards with bucket trucks and spilling hydrolic oil everywhere.

Yes, grinding a stump is worthwhile if you plan to use the area for planting, recreation, or building. Removing the stump clears space for new landscaping or construction projects. Additionally, as the stump decomposes, it can rob the soil of nitrogen, affecting the growth of other plants. Stumps are also a tripping hazard, making removal a wise choice.
The time it takes to grind a stump depends on its size, density, and the grinder's performance. A small, soft stump can be ground in 15 minutes, while a large, dense stump may require up to eight hours for complete removal. Factors like the stump's structure and your grinding technique affect how quickly you can remove it.
Grinding a stump is often the best solution for clearing an area for construction or planting. It removes the visible portion of the stump, but the roots remain underground. If you need to remove the roots for long-term stability or design plans, you'll need to hire a professional for full stump and root removal. This ensures your site is completely cleared for future projects.
Leaving a tree stump in your yard can cause several problems. It can become a breeding ground for pests and diseases that might harm nearby trees and structures. Plus, the decaying stump can interfere with your landscaping plans, making mowing difficult and promoting unwanted new growth that can disrupt soil stability. Removing the stump eliminates these risks and improves your yard's safety and appearance.
To effectively kill a stump, you need to interrupt its nutrient supply and speed up decay. Drill holes into the stump and fill them with a concentrated herbicide like glyphosate, rock salt, or Epsom salt. This method ensures the substance penetrates deeply. Alternatively, cover the stump with a dark, heavy-duty tarp to deprive it of sunlight, which accelerates the process. Remember to follow safety guidelines when using these methods.
